This week, team SRUCSA ran on a skeleton crew with most of our staff taking some well earned annual leave!

⚡ Next week, the co-presidents will decide which committees we will sit on so this week, Liam and Douglas discussed which committees would best support Liam's manifesto goals.

⚡ On Wednesday, Liam visited Oatridge for a campus tour and a chin wag with Colin Hume. They discussed possibilities of future events and activities for the students studying at Oatridge.

⚡ Liam got an excellent opportunity to feedback on the draft principles and policy written by the Scottish Youth Parliament and Children's council.

⚡ Liam met with Jack Wills - the new Marketing and Student Recruitment officer for central faculty - to strategize for the coming academic year!

Next week, Liam takes his turn for annual leave - highlands and islands, watch out!

SRUC Oatridge student Samantha Mein works as an Animal Rescue Officer at the SSPCA whilst also studying for an HND in Wildlife and Conservation. Samantha picked up these two hoglets from a remote area in Peebleshire. Samantha explains “The lady called as she had been keeping an eye on a hoglet for the past few days, but mum wasn't coming back to look after it, so she took it in and put down some food and water. As I was on the phone asking if she had seen any more, and if she could have a look around the area where the first one was found, another little hoglet appeared. She was amazed and I advised to pop them both in together. They immediately snuggled up with each other. Upon inspection, they both seemed in good health, if not a little thin, so I put them in a cosy container together and took them up to the centre where they had some food and water. The wildlife driver confirmed they made it up to our National Wildlife Centre at Fishcross and had a big breakfast! They're currently growing up together at the wildlife centre and will be hand reared until they're of age to be released back into the wild where they belong ☺️🦔 This time of year is so busy with all the babies being born and the young hoglets are at the stage of being able to walk around and open their eyes. If you spot a hoglet, monitor from a distance first as mum can sometimes abandon their young if disturbed while nurturing her babies.”If further advice or help is needed then please call the SSPCA helpline on 03000999999.
